Anderton Boat Lift
Back

Time travel through the unique structure on board the elegant Edwin Clark trip boat, journeying between the River Weaver and the Trent & Mersey Canal high above.

Whether you are an engineering enthusiast or history fanatic, the magnificent Anderton Boat Lift will not fail to amaze.
Nestling in the heart of Cheshire the Anderton Boat Lift is an ideal attraction for many groups.

Feel free to browse the gift shop with its unique heritage and historic content, while outdoor decking offers fine views over the grounds and lift.
On fine weather days, take advantage of the picnic areas, located in the impressive shadow of this mighty structure.
Our free facilities include toilet, gift shop and café, not to mention the spectacular view, with the added bonus of giving your party the option of visiting the exhibition or conducting a trip if they choose (and your time allows).

Ideally located just minutes from the M56 and M6, the boat lift is an excellent alternative to the motorway services for a short refreshment and facilities stop.
